Song of poor Cubian fisher


For the sweatest land I want to leave
Where pegons will play in my arms
Where my women and child
never leave me outside
When I`ll come with my friends tonight.

For this hard time I cry for you Lord,
Never leave me alone in this boat
When the wind blows as bustered
and my clothes are shrunked and dusted
And my hat is so wet and cold.

It`s believed that Jesus comes to me
I can see him far away in the rain
He is coming, and bringing a new hope for me
And his voice and my song are the same.

I`ll be workin` hard all the day
To have money to take you away
To the place that we dreamed fior
to the times that`s forgotten
To the country, where`s freedom for all.
